They have stolen my time, but the return has been nothing less than miraculous. I am tired. I grieve the loss of myself, but Brandi put it so perfectly in this song, that I’m hearing for the first time. All of the losses that I believe exist, I will gain again one day, through their eyes. Such a refreshing thought.

      There is a line in this song where she says she'll never hit the big time without her daughter. If you look back at all of her work, I think there is a marked difference in her songs, and even how she sings the older ones, in the last few years. I think it's amazing how children can change the way we see things.

      MaryAnn Brown she’s been openly gay a long long time. But she was making a stand for what she believes in, knowing she’s got all kinds of fans, some who aren’t aware, people that got brought by friends.. speaking to the fact that - Even though she is the star standing on stage, who she is with her beautiful family (& they really are beautiful, genuine.. like the real freakin deal if you follow them) is a place where same-sex marriage laws are constantly still being battled, couples being denied benefits, etc -where she is playing. I imagine all the great famous black artists before civil rights could relate. Lauded and applauded on stage, but not legal to use their bathrooms or sit at their counters (not a direct comparison, but hopefully you get what I’m trying to say)

      It's not that they are "haters" which is an adjective that is so easy to throw out there regarding replies which you disagree with. We have different beliefs in what the covenant of marriage, and who makes up the family according to God's word and which is designed by God. I'm not going to quote anything from the Bible to you. We have different beliefs which you may not understand We also have the right to speak about them. It has nothing to do with sexuality and everything to do with obeying God's word and living the life He created for us.

    I always wanted to have a family. When I realized I was gay I thought maybe I’d lose my chance at the family I’d dreamed of. This song, and her words, mean so much to me.

    Brandi Carlile is such an amazing talent, and her songs are so relatable and true to the emotions and feelings of us all, I believe. It feels as if she’s singing exactly to me what I’m going through in my own life. Almost every song I hear brings tears to my eyes.

    It like weirds me out that I’m raising children at the same time that are the same age as Brandi Carlile’s.
    She’s amazing. She’s been such a big deal to me for such a long time.

    Imagine how the world would change if all children could get a hug and kiss from mom...or dad...even if they're at work. Because they need it right at that specific moment.

    • @dabear2438
      @dabear2438 5 лет назад

      Agreed. I would dearly love more than anything to get a hug and kiss from my parents... 6 years now since they left for that far and distant shore. Living parentless pulls the steady floor from underneath your feet.

    I’ve been a fan of Brandi since 2005 because I saw her open for Hanson sometime around then in San Francisco. She’s brought me to tears since then. This song speaks to my soul because I have a daughter too and I love her but what this song says rings so true to me. I love you Brandi
